Leave your personality at home. When interviewing, make it clear that you are subservient to the will of the firm and that you will do your utmost to please the firm and its clients.

I think AA4 gave decent advice if your sole goal is to receive an offer (which is probably going to be true for many people). You can always suss out those things after you have an offer. That’s when you’re in the driver’s seat.

Hi so I need help. I currently work to bring clients into the company i work at for web design, social media management, and brand strategy. I also do this as feeelance on the side, so where do I draw the line between who I refer to the company I work for or who I personally do freelance for? I don’t want to short out the company I work for but also love freelance and am more than capable of the work.
